        I would not call the way I treat Dabo as "personal" at all. I publicly 
promote it; I give talks at conferences on it, and I run mailing lists 
discussing it in detail.

        Why do you keep insisting on reading meaning into what I've written 
instead of reading what I've written?

        I criticized your characterization of someone who makes public displays 
of something as "personal". The fact that we even know about his beliefs 
clearly shows that this is a public thing to him, not a personal one. 
Proselytizing is a public act, not a personal one.

per•son•al (adj): of or concerning one's private life, relationships, and 
emotions rather than matters connected with one's public or professional 
career. E.g.: the book describes his acting career and gives little information 
about his personal life.
